Being a SW fan, I know I am biased, but this is still one of my favorite rides. I got to share it with my young daughter last time we were at WDW and she totally loved it.

PLEASE UPDATE THIS RIDE!!!

User ID: rshaul   Thrill: 2  Theme: 3  Overall: 2 (1/17/2008)
I love Star Wars, but this was only an average Simulator, really needs an update.

User ID: WolfDreamer   Thrill: 4  Theme: 4  Overall: 4 (4/29/2007)
My only problem with this ride is that I was so glued to the setting and props that I didn't want to get on the ride right away. This is the first ride I have ever been on when I was wishing that the line was long. I wore my Star Wars t-shirt for this one and had a blast.

I never get tired of this ride! Excellent vehicle, the Starspeeder 3000 is.

MAY DAY! MAY DAY!

User ID: Le_Poof   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (8/30/2005)
The que is great and really atmospheric, doesn't really need updating or anything but the ride itself could be a little more rough. I don't want it to become like Back to the Future and give everyone a headache.

Can not waight to go back!

User ID: POTA   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (6/1/2005)
unbelievable

User ID: SpoiledTink   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (3/20/2005)
A great ride for everyone! my dad who is 60, HATES rides, but he wanted to go on this one, and he was laughing the hardest out of everyone on the ride!

User ID: TFQJR   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (10/14/2004)
Excellent...Really a Lot of Fun!!!

User ID: Disneylover06   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (7/15/2004)
The ride was fun and seeing C-3PO and R2-D2 with kids was fun but not the most exciting. Try to sit in the back for the roughest ride. A must for first timer or star wars lovers.

User ID: JackSparrow   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (5/27/2004)
An outdated ride needs to be renovated, but still enjoyable.

User ID: ridermage   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/30/2004)
One of my favorite motion simulator rides anywhere!

User ID: MickeyManiac   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (12/24/2003)
This is okay for one of Disney's many simulator rides. It's pretty good and has some fun parts, especially when you warp into lightspeed. You get to experience scenes from actual Star Wars movies. Great fun.

User ID: chrisandginny   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (10/17/2003)
A Blast. I'm a huge Star Wars fan, so I might be a little biased. I do think this ride could be updated, but I hope they don't lose the origional characters. My kids loved this ride.

User ID: pfleitz   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (9/19/2003)
Yeah! Lots of fun! Worth the wait.... but I didn't have
to!

User ID: thumpersgirl85   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (6/6/2003)
Only thing that would make this ride complete would be a complimentary ewok mask or stuffed animal. I love ewoks!!

User ID: teknodave   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (5/12/2003)
Though I am more of a Star Trek than Star Wars fan *ducks Light Sabers* I really enjoyed this ride, it felt like we were really in the ship flying out there. Though I did catch in the quque them mentioning "Warp drive"? I thought SW was star drive, while ST had Warp?

User ID: buzzsdad   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (5/6/2003)
Our young kids had a blast... "Look R2-D2 an C-3P0!!"
a classic movie ride we'll never get tired of this one. Great ride.

User ID: Dsnygal12   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (11/30/2002)
same as at Disneyland and I like it there too!!!

User ID: emmy2462   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (11/12/2002)
Love It !!!

User ID: DDMAN26   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (10/22/2002)
Star Wars and Disney a great combination!!!

User ID: Jorgegomarga   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (10/17/2002)
Terrific you have to ride it at less 2 times great for Star Wars Fan's

User ID: karina12345   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (9/21/2002)
the ride kinda stunk...i wuz sittin there like nothing happened yawning...its not as good as back to the future in universal studios...and it feels fake.....so i dont recommend to go on it

User ID: Coronado Kid   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (9/16/2002)
Wasn't thrilled with the ride, but I loved the queue area! The building is awesome too!

User ID: unocardshark   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (9/16/2002)
The scenery was outstanding but the ride itself kind of stunk. Its time for some updating considering other parks motion simulators are light years ahead of this one and usually in 3D. If you get the seat in the front row and in the left corner then just go ahead and get off because its not worth it.

User ID: muppet vision 4-D   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (8/10/2002)
Well done ride and terrific waiting line!

[Don't mess with the queue area or make the movie like episode one, stick with the droids George!]

At night short line one will find here says our good friend Yoda!

User ID: jedi master   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: Unrated (7/25/2002)
i've loved this ride since i was big enough to ride it. it rocks!

User ID: Darth Basically   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (7/16/2002)
Knowing George Lucas, he'll probably replace htis with jar Jar Binks the ride, where he flies the Starspeeder and causes people to commit suicide because he's so annoying. Please don't screw with this one, George! Okay, maybe just make a Special Edition, but no Episode One-size disatster, please!

User ID: BuzzLightyear84   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (6/1/2002)
The perfect combination of Star Wars action and Disney magic. The force is still with this one.

User ID: jef   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/22/2002)
So much fun, my mother and I went on it twice in a row. This is something my mother never usually does.

User ID: shawnp0001   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (3/20/2002)
One of the better rides in the park.

User ID: 1313WEBFOOTWLK   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/21/2002)
It's not just the ride, it's the mood. Just wonderful!

User ID: jalbright   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/2/2002)
Loved it!

User ID: RPK4444   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (3/27/2001)
This is the best way to experience Star Wars. Feeling like your actually flying in the ship is amazing.

User ID: ninafeliz1   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (3/15/2001)
The thrming is well done, but I don't find the ride to be much of a thrill ride. It's like sitting in a box that jerks around a lot, and that's about it. But if you've never ridden it, it's definately worth trying.

User ID: poa65   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (3/4/2001)
Great Ride. All SW Lovers will enjoy it. The ATAT is cool.

User ID: NeuroEngin   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (1/29/2001)
Fun ride that captures the spirit of the films, but an update is definitely needed. Also, additional Star Wars rides would be cool, like a speeder bike or Pod Racer ride.

User ID: Koolkid10   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (10/5/2000)
Its a little bumpy but I (a very big fan of disney and star wars)loved it.
From Pete,10

User ID: vtfan   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (6/5/2000)
Excellent theming in the entrance and queue area but the ride itself needs updating. Not much more advanced that what I can ride for $4 in my local mall.

User ID: FCD01757   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (5/21/2000)
Great ride. Was involved in a ride-a-thon for the Star Wars Weekend and rode it 30 times. My wife and daugther rode it 31.

User ID: Sapphire   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (5/19/2000)
The first new-generation Disney thrill ride is still one of the most appealing, with a good plot and an irresistable concept. Yeah, its updating is due, but I just can't see the Pod Racer upgrade as possibly topping the original.

User ID: gac20   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (3/18/2000)
My all time favorite ride that should not be changed. It is the perfect mix of fun, excitment, and Star Wars!

User ID: LaffnStock   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (3/12/2000)
Great building, great line, okay ride. Screens are just too small. Cannot wait for the Pod Racer update.

User ID: Dack48   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/19/2000)
Yeah Star Tours!

User ID: Jeremiah   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/5/2000)
Still a great ride and one of the best queues.

User ID: DL-2000   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (1/9/2000)
Identical to the Disneyland version except for the awesome props on the outside of the building.

User ID: NancyDVC   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (1/7/2000)
Way cool and not too rough. If you are short then the seats towards the rear may leave your feet swinging. I love every time I ride it

User ID: rbanks   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (1/7/2000)
This attraction is also getting a face-lift late this year. This is an older ride which may seem slow and boring after riding RnR coaster and the Tower of Terror.

User ID: TPA_RickWest   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (1/6/2000)
The outside of the attraction is fantastic with an Ewok village and AT-AT Walker! However, like Disneyland's Star Tours, this one is in serious need of updating.
